 * The Middle → The Middle (Song) — Zelmerszoetrop 19:10, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Support. The middle of what? Lots of things have middles. Or move to The Middle (song). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:56, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Support move but to The Middle (song). Because of the television series, someone looking this up could just as likely be looking for the song or the show. The Middle should then be changed to a disambiguation page. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 19:01, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose unless there is another existing article about a topic called "The Middle" from which this needs to be differentiated (which there does not appear to be at this time). We do not pre-emptively disambiguate. See WP:DAB. --IllaZilla (talk) 02:51, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
 * On second thought I see there is The Middle (TV series), so perhaps a dab is indeed pertinent. --IllaZilla (talk) 03:00, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
 * There's already a disambiguation page at Middle which includes links to both articles. I've added it to the hatnote. If the page is moved then should probably redirect to Middle. I don't see a need for two disambiguation pages. Reach Out to the Truth 15:56, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Right. What I was saying is that we have 2 articles about topics title "The Middle". One is already disambiguated to The Middle (TV series), so I agree that this one should also be disambiguated to The Middle (song). The Middle (no disambiguation) can redirect to Middle, which is a dab page. --IllaZilla (talk) 20:43, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Support, and then point to Middle with both "The Middle"s mentioned here placed there. 70.29.210.242 (talk) 06:23, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Support, uncapitalised (song). Rennell435 (talk) 13:07, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

 * I have fixed all the articles that linked to The Middle, will now redirect it to Middle  GB fan  talk 00:16, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

Surf Rock
Does anyone else think this song is really fits into the genre of surf rock (or at least some sort of revival) and should be accordingly marked? 173.54.200.196 (talk) 21:52, 14 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Without a reliable secondary source making that claim, it would be original reasearch to state it in the article. Also, no, it isn't surf rock in any way, shape, or form. --IllaZilla (talk) 02:40, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
